My timing on the picture worked out well, it occurred as I was pulling in the driveway. Who could have anticipated that?!

Then it was meant to be!

I had to exit the freeway on the way to work and do a few laps around the Home Depot parking lot before I could take my picture.

I missed my ".0" moment when I crossed 300K last year. Sitting at about 305K right now, and very similar situation as the OP's except I have replaced my glow plugs and UVCH gaskets/harnesses several years back "just because". The glow plugs were actually just starting to act up the day before I changed them. Injectors and o-rings are still OE, as is my tranny, rear end, and turbo. I do have either a chip or a flash, though, but I have never abused the truck at all in the 190K miles I've logged over the past 12+ years with it.
